BIO1 SYSTEMS, Inc. — Department of Defense SBIR Phase I: A19-166

Description

Bio1 Systems is developing a novel platform for capturing patient-specific clinical data at point-of-injury and integrating data to provide rapid clinical decision support for patient triage and care. The proposed project aims to extend the capabilities of the company’s current electronic TCCC (E-TC3) tag / head mounted display (HMD) system to include physiological monitoring. The complete platform would include (1) data capture via a smart garment and head mounted display, (2) data transfer via a bi-directional electronic E-TC3 tag, and (3) data upload via synchronous EHR integration. Specifically, the proposed smart garment includes sensors to capture a patient’s electrocardiogram (ECG), heart rate, peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2), respiration rate, blood pressure, and core body temperature. We aim to combine raw vital sign data from the wearable physiological monitor to indicate if a patient is experiencing a medical emergency, such as cardiopulmonary arrest, shock, and/or hypothermia. This proposed multi-parameter system aims to extend the “golden hour of survivability” for the modern warfighter through improved physiological monitoring, critical care guidance, documentation, triage and communication capabilities.
